THE RELATIVITY OF AMERICA A X IX.SKIXIFICANT loukini; (Jcnniin Jew, with celluloid eol- liir, nrrived in New York the first of the week. Much to his rinlmimssmciit he was met by eliccrin;,' thousands, transported in Mayor Dylan 'k boat mid escorted to a palatial unite in the Hotel Com. modore by an escort of honor. The man's name was Einstein. Professor Einstein, and he tame here to confer with American Jews on the best means of de veloping Palestine Hut the reception accorded him was not in recog nition of the importance of this pilfiriiniific, but in recognition of Ein stein's theory of the relativity of mailer. or tli in is the man who demonstrated Sir Isaac Newton was only half right when hit in the ear by a fulling apple, and that Euclid wus little more than n bush leaguer. When his book was published he ad mitted there were only about ten human beings in the world who would understand it, but this pronouncement only increased his repu tation for scientific accuracy, and boosted hi(s volume into one of the titty best sellers. ror each of these ten wisemen wrole a hook about Einstein's book, the great discovery was promptly wired from one approximate atom in space to the other, and in no time at all, the retiring little German professor was forced to crawl out of his garret in Berlin, und receive the plaudits of a grateful and woashipful humanity. All of which demonstrates one or two interesting facts. In the first place America does not, as some critics maintain, despise brains. According to press reports the reception given Einstein was almost as vociferous as that extended Carpentier. .Moreover, on the tiny 'of his arrival liabe Ruth had a sprained thumb, and whereas liubcV thumb was only given a machine head on the sport page, the Berlin professor's head was given a front page lead, with a photo graphic, layout in tho run-over. Another fact is that while no one in general understands whut Einstein's theory means, they do understand, that it takes a life sized whack at the established order. Even the theory of gravity, which everyone supposed was as immutable as the mother-in-law joke, is shaken. Instead of a straight, line being the shortest distance between two points, this is only true outside of "curved snnce-' for "falling bodies are subjects independent of physical causes and light 'n diffussion is bent" AVherefor everyone rejoices, particularly everyone in America, ex- eept the school teachers. Probably Professor Einstein will no more understand A.nerie,, than Americans will understand his theory, but (here is .significance in his arrival and its reaction, nevertheless. For it demonstrates again that this great country is simnlv crav .-.)..... t ,,vthin., if doesn't understand, and steadily progresses through prompt recogni tion ol what ever is completely ami sensationally new.

THE MILLENIUM. SOME day the stand-off scheme will smash, a wise old seer has -said it and all we'll buy will .be for cash and none will ask for credit. Collectors then won't block our way and bluff and plead and beckon; and that will be a happy day for all of us. 1 reckon. We have to pay more for our eats, and find the poor house closer, because we pay the bills of beats who sting the cor ner grocer. The grocer sighs, "This Jasper Jones has jumped our lovely city, and he was owing forty bones, which seems a ghastly pity. He'll never pay me for my rice, be never more will greet me; and so I'll have to raise the price from those who do not beat me." And when I go to purchase prunes to feed mv chil dren twenty, he's raised the price some picayunes, and soaks me good and plenty. The tailor trusts it hundred men, and ten of them don't pay him, and I must dig up an extra ven to comfort him and stay him. And so it goes along the line in every kind of dealing; the deadbeat adds to bills of mine until my head is reel, mg.
